• ★★★★★ · Nearly Perfect Show · deadmax · 2019

  1st Set: Every song is nicely played but the only stand-out is BIRDSONG and it will make you cry if you listen closely. Bobby calls El Paso their “most requested song”. We get an electric Ripple which is worth the price of admission. MABM has matured a lot over this spring run and is in full bloom here. IM A KING BEE is so down and dirty I don’t see how anyone in that building could ever get clean again. BERTHA absolutely rips and is now fulfilling the promise when the song debuted.

  I remember being in college, loved Led Z, Jimmi, stones, the who....but zep was gone, and the who was old(although they still rocked.....and I hated the GD....dated a chick in HS that liked em, and i thought she was a freak.....anyway, late one night, about 4 am....smoked up on some good ole skunk(back then that was primo)...had the head phones on and was listening to this bootleg, looking at my equalizer....and Dark Star came on....and I started to get in the groove, things started to change…

• ★★★★★ · Top 5!! · dr. flashback · 2004

  Both of these last nights at the Fillmore are stellar shows. This one is my personal favorite, much more on the trippy side. As on 4/29,we get great versions of HT Handle, Bird Song, Cumberland and Morning Dew. Plus a hot King Bee thrown in the mix. The Other One is the version used on "Skullfuck" GD 1971, by the way. The rhythms build in intensity until it sounds like a locomotive is about to crash thru your wall.
